There has been controversy recently about what to call the virus that has unleashed a worldwide pandemic. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) prefers “novel coronavirus.” Others have referred to it as the “Wuhan virus,” after its place of origin, as is common in naming diseases.
The Epoch Times suggests a more accurate name is the “CCP virus,” and calls upon others to join us in adopting this name.
The name holds the CCP accountable for its wanton disregard of human life and consequent spawning of a pandemic that has put untold numbers in countries around the world at risk, while creating widespread fear and devastating the economies of nations trying to cope with this disease.
After all, CCP officials knew in early December that the virus had appeared in Wuhan, but they sat on the information for six weeks. They arrested those who tried to warn of the danger, accusing them of spreading “rumors,” and employed the regime’s rigorous censorship to prevent media coverage and to delete any mentions of it from social media.
What might have been contained was allowed silently to spread, showing up in all of China. Individuals who might have protected themselves became victims, in numbers far greater than the CCP has admitted. By late January, there were reports that all of the crematoria in Wuhan were operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week to deal with the crush of dead bodies.

The Wuhanic Plague
Commie Corona.
It’s called the Chinee Plague here.
I have little doubt that the sinister cabal that cooked this up also sat around and decided what to call it, like some parallel universe Mad Men.
“Coronavirus! I love it! Run with that.”
Globalism Flu or Endcap Flu works for me.
Chinese Experimental Bioweapon 00027.
Chinese Communist Party - interestingly the USSR comes to mind (in Cyrillic letters it was CCCP, which transliterated was SSSR).
In cooperation with your FRiendly Democrat National Committee!
Wuhanic Plague.
Chicom virus
The President has right - they created it (accidentally or intentionally) but then they hid it - intentionally buying off the WHO to help! And if that wasn’t enough to wound, and to boot they lied about it, finally attempting to throw it off on us. So by God they own it and for that reason it shall now carry their name - The CHINESE VIRUS! simple!
Oh, forgot, by hiding it and lying about it and not immediately closing their borders, they thrust it upon the world...no way they don’t out right own the full naming rights - no way - CHINESE VIRUS!
And I forgot the BAT part too!
Well, since they've "gifted" us with so many viral pandemics, this one need a little more definition, like:
The ChiCom 2020 Bioweapon.
Best yet! Post of the day!
“Great Dem Hope Virus”
The panic is certainly causing the type damage they’ve been praying for.
That is more definitive...bet it has some specific names associated with it too...starting with the letters ‘S’. ‘C’, ‘G’, ‘R’ and on and on!
Many of the other recent pandemics were given geographical names. Why did the sexy name for this one get used, and not “China” flu, or “Wuhan” flu?
Go “um” yourself, if you insist on being an apologist for the Globalist Liberals.
